He wrote mystery, action/adventure, science-fiction, crime fiction, suspense, short stories, nonfiction, and was a comic scriptwriter, poet, screenwriter, essayist, and metaphysical scholar. He published more than 125 books in his long career, and his books have been published in more than 25 foreign languages with close to two hundred million copies in print throughout the world.
After producing a number of science-fiction and mystery novels, Don launched in 1969 the phenomenal Mack Bolan: The Executioner, which quickly emerged as the original, definitive Action/Adventure series.

Mack seemed to act out of character for the first half of the book. Not planning out a hit, taking a hostage around the world with him and other small things made me feel like the author didn’t really understand his character or wasn’t fully up to speed before he wrote this book. However, the second half which found Bolan held hostage by a heroin drug lord made for interesting reading up through the climactic revenge and carnage expected from the Executioner.

One memorable thing about this book was the fact that I came home from school one day only to find that my beloved English Cocker Spaniel, Buster, had eaten the cover and first chapter.
